Description

Nintendo Switch file formats can be read and extracted from the command line for inspection, preservation, or homebrew-related workflows. This helps advanced users understand package contents without a graphical tool.

Use only with files you are allowed to inspect. Console file formats can involve copyrighted content, keys, or device-specific material, so handle extracted data responsibly.
